Hi, first time posting here, just looking for a bit of advice
Basically I applied for a WHV last year and had one granted in August. I originally intended to travel in February but for one reason it another I had to postpone my trip until this coming August. I plan to travel through Asia for a couple of months on my way to Australia so my visa will expire before I get there. I know I can apply for a new one as soon as it expires but I'll already be on the road at that stage and obviously I'd prefer to have the visa sorted before I commit to traveling
Has anyone been in this situation before? I've already talked to the immi help centre but they just gave me a non discript answer about cancelling my current visa then applying for a new one while warning me that this could have 'significant process time'.
Would it be best to go down that route it just cancel my trip for another month and hope I get a new visa quickly once the old one expires?
Thanks for any help
